Shaman's Perspective
This is one of your hardest fights! You'll have to catch the Druid, and then try to nuke him down. Try to Frost Shock the Druid and Earth Bind the Warrior to slow him down so he cannot Hamstring your Rogue. Purge everything he has! Make sure you trigger his Roots or else it'll be hard to win against that setup. Time your healing spells with the Rogue using Gouge to get Mortal Strike off. That'll help you greatly in the Mana fight, since you're the inferior here. Remember you can stay behind pillars and use totems.
There's also a 2nd way of fighting Druids. You're rushing down the Warrior, and both are you are doing damage to him. You place Grounding Totem to avoid the first Cyclone, while the Rogue is hitting. Remember to spam Purge on the Warrior, and quickly after, the Rogue uses Blind. If the Druid doesn't trinket his Warrior will die, and if he does your Rogue can Shadowstep back to the Druid, and you're nuking him! Without a trinket it's a lot easier to keep up on the Druid.
Totems Used: Grounding, Earth Bind after Fear has been used, Mana Spring.

| never won by leting the shaman off-dps. tho winning the mana war by attacking the warr with some gouge-ks as mentioned (and/or rushing the druid w/ the shaman purging) was/is quite easy in comparasion | |

| this is easy mach until u get the 2k raiting. just let ur shaman to kill the warrior, the druid will come out if the warrior at 50-70%. stay in steath and when the druid come out shadowstep/cheap shot/kidney shot/ vanish /and ETC. if u cant stunlock any more use blind and steath. the shaman still killing the warrior and the druid won't heal him couse the rogue stun lock him. if the druid can use 1-2 hots on the warrior just purge it. | |

| Honestly, this team composition is a hard counter to Rogue/Shaman. It's virtually almost impossible for you to win, even if all the Warrior does all game is stay on the Rogue. If anyone has any suggestions for winning, then please share. Bursting down the Warrior during the second Blind doesn't really work if the Warrior is even decently intelligent and gets into D. Stance & Sword/Board at any point in time, or resists Kidney Shot, or if he Intervenes your Blind on the Druid, or if the Druid just keeps the Shaman locked down well enough that they have to spam heal the Rogue instead of putting pressure on the Warrior, etc... | |

| Go for the druids when he has wasted his trinket to keep warrior alive . If you work together you can catch him in zerk with death wish and as a shaman you can do plently of damage then. | |

| Hard combo to win over if you keep them both close to each , however like visonka said stay on the druid while ccing war on and off , startegy worked with me i kept on using evasion when i was close to war . | |

| My partner and I got so frustrated trying for the druid, or trying to do the blind into trinket, then blind 1:30 later, that we tried something born out of frustration. Burn the warrior. I put deadly and wound my weapons. Let the my partner and warrior go at it for a bit, then I jump in...then it's all dps all the time on the warrior. So, far, it's worked everytime (not many 4-0), but the four wins have been against very well-geared (s3 shoulders) warriors and druids. We have been blinding the druid early just incase it goes long, but it hasn't even come close. Just thought I'd share I bit. | |

| Druid/Warrior is impossible. My shaman and I faced this team 7 different times with the same outcome ever time...... A lot of lost points. I have tried every strategy and none seem to work... Maybe I'm noob? Maybe it's because we fight full veng/brut teams.... Either way. I haven't been able to get the W out of a Warrior/Druid team. | |

| The only time my partner and I have beaten this combo was when the warrior happened to be stupid enough to ignore me and get on the shaman, otherwise it's a long, drawn-out fight in which the warrior dips to 10-20% when crits or blinds go well, but eventually the warrior's crits align with aboslutely no cooldowns on my half, and we lose. Ugh, this build forces us to beat every single other team we fight in order to gain points or break even... | |

| let the shaman go 1on1 with warrior until his druid has to heal him. then your rogue can open up on the druid while being humanform. purge off the heals on the warrior, pop heroism and continue dps on the warrior, or the druid depending on the warriors remaining HP, while your rogue has the druid stunned. if the warrior goes sword and board you might consider helping your rogue with dps on the druid instead. either way I think this might be the best way to start a druid/warrior game. very offensive. A good warrior/druid team will always be difficult to defeat so dont beat yourself up if you cant win them all. | |

| Any half decent warrior can peel a rogue off a druid, and sword/board when he knows hes getting bursted down. 100% loss if the druid/warrior are decent. | |
